Dinosaur is a 2000 American live-action/computer-animated adventure film produced by Walt Disney Feature Animation with The Secret Lab, and released by Walt Disney Pictures. It is the 39th animated feature in the Walt Disney Animated Classics series, though it is not officially labeled as one of the animated classics in the United Kingdom, where The Wild is included in the canon instead. Originally a stand-alone film, it was not included in the canon until 2008.
The film follows an Iguanodon named Aladar who, as the friend of the lemurs, after surviving the devastating meteor, are moving out for their new home. Along the way, they befriend and reunite the remaining herd of dinosaurs who are being pursued by the predators, such as the Carnotaurus, while on a journey to the "Nesting Grounds".
While the main characters in Dinosaur are computer-animated, most of the film's backgrounds were filmed on location. A number of backgrounds were found in Canaima National Park in Venezuela; various tepuis and Angel Falls also appear in the film. It is the second film (after Fantasia 2000) produced by Disney Animation Studios to feature computer-generated three-dimensional animation. At officially $127.5 million, it was the most expensive theatrical film release of the year. The film was a financial success, grossing over $349 million worldwide in total box office revenue, becoming the fifth highest-grossing film of 2000.
I'm in love
With a dinosaur
I never felt
This small before
He can take
Me back in time
And make me happy
Like a little child
I'm trying to catch your shadow on the wall
Standing next to you I feel so small
I'm in love
With a dinosaur
Peace in my head
But my heart
Drums below
I'm in love
With a dinosaur
Now I know
What a heart is for
I'm trying to catch your shadow on the wall
Standing next to you I feel so small
I'm trying to catch your shadow on the wall
Standing next to you I feel so small
Ahiha
Ahiha
Ahiha
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Oohoo
Oohoo
I'm trying to catch your shadow
I'm trying to catch your shadow
I'm trying to catch your shadow
I'm trying to catch your shadow
Standing next to you I feel so small
